     I love to grow, prepare and use fresh herbs every day. Herbs are easy to grow from seed, indoors and out and they are thankfully mostly disease and pest resistant. There are many health benefits associated with the use of herbs.  Herbs also make foods and drinks more enjoyable when prepared and used correctly.
   
     I will show you how to clean and prepare several herbs which I currently have growing in my garden. I hope you enjoy.

I love herbs, but unfortunately we don't have so much space to grow all the ones you have here. Our rosemary bush does get pillaged every time I make a lasagne, though!

PS....I forgot to tell you I live on a little less than 1/4 acre so....I don't have a lot of space either :)

I promise herbs are the easiest and most forgiving of all seeds/plants! If you start them in egg shells & soil they transplant well. It is worth a try even if you just have large lovely planters full.

Thank you so much that is very nice of you. Perhaps you noticed that I spelled parsley wrong???? It did crack me up when I realized, oh well 

Ha ha I saw one was spelled with an e, so had to look again. I started to think maybe is was some regional dialectal spelling or something :))
